Reliable construction estimating for informed decisions
Reliable construction estimating
Knowing that maintenance or repair work is required is only part of the decision. The next question is: what is the work likely to cost?
Independent estimating, cost planning and quantity surveying support for landlords, property owners, managing agents, freeholders and Resident Management Companies — so you can make better-informed financial decisions before undertaking construction work.
01
Construction Cost Planning
Takes a proposed scope of work and develops it into useful budget information. Breaking a project into elements shows you:
- Where significant costs occur
- Which parts of the project affect the overall budget
- Where allowances may be required
- The likely financial scale of proposed work
Ideal for refurbishment projects, property repairs, major works, planned maintenance programmes, capital expenditure planning and tendering.
02
Quantity Take-Offs & Estimating
A quantity take-off identifies and measures the quantities associated with proposed building works. Those quantities help to:
- Develop a construction estimate
- Build a budget
- Assess pricing
The objective: greater cost visibility before you commit to the work.
03
Tender & Contractor Quotation Reviews
The lowest quotation is not automatically the best quotation. A review helps you:
- Compare how contractors have interpreted the project
- Spot differing allowances or scopes of work
- Identify areas that require clarification
- Understand what is included within the proposed price
The aim isn't simply to find the cheapest number — it's to help you understand what you're paying for.
04
Final Cost & Maintenance Review
Once maintenance requirements have been identified, they need to be considered financially. This review:
- Translates maintenance and repair recommendations into useful cost information
- Supports budgeting and expenditure planning
